Girls/boys double header Friday in the Dome

You can thank the snow storm if you like to see the boys and girls basketball games on the same night.

The boys game against Parkview was moved up from Tuesday to Monday to beat the storm. Now, the girls game against Ozark is being delayed from Thursday to Friday.

The girls varsity game is scheduled to start at 5:30 p.m., with the boys varsity game to follow. All games from now on in the regular season will be played in the Cardinal Dome.

Boys and girls will both play Neosho on Monday. Then the regular season will end with Joplin (girls Thursday, boys Friday).

Webb City will host the boys Class 5 District 7 tournament beginning March 5. Willard will host the girls district tournament.
